Bank Robber Caught

DIGEST

FBI agents have arrested a Naples man suspected of robbing $2,300 from the Savings of America bank branch at 4875 N. Federal Highway in Fort Lauderdale in March.

Daniel Tyler Lipsett, 34, is being held in the Lee County Jail pending his return to Fort Lauderdale to face bank robbery charges, said FBI spokesman Paul Miller.

Lipsett allegedly entered the bank at about 3 p.m. on March 22, showed a demand note to a teller, then flashed a silver-plated revolver. He was given money and fled.

FBI agents suspect Lipsett is responsible for a number of bank robberies in Broward and Palm Beach counties, also. They dubbed him "The Daily Planner," because he carried a book that looked like a calendar during several robberies, Miller said.

The case was investigated by the FBI and the Fort Lauderdale Police Department.
